It's telling that this group of highly competent and well-meaning panelists could not arrive at a better term... As Victoria Sarapina so eloquently opined during the Granshan conference of 2015, the term "non-Latin" actually serves to keep us alert concerning the persistent hegemony of the Latin script; an injustice that all other scripts have to join in solidarity to counter. I believe the term "non-Latin" serves as the ideal banner of this necessary solidarity, keeping in mind that one cannot correct an injustice without directly addressing it.

3:27 and the eye fatigue from small sized backlit screens of phones or locked down expensive & bundled devices for eink suitable sized screens ... aah why did he not mention that.

Amazing.

Activists doing activist things.

whoa...

Love it.

Nice talk. Interesting writing system. I have an idea for an implementation. (Since I don’t know much, it may well not work at all.) Would it be possible to make such an advanced kerning engine that it would magically adjust the vertical kerning as the word is being formed? Is that doable? It seems like kerning by groups is a possible solution here. Perhaps, otherwise, you could create copies of glyphs, but at different heights, and then you could use ligature groups to determine which-height character should be displayed. But this would limit the length of a word. I hope the Nasta‘līq-typeface technology keeps advancing.

Wow. Fantastic talk. In the poster with all the gender-distinction options, the asterisk is fit within the x-height. I like that. It doesn’t disrupt the colour of the text. It becomes part of the text, and not a footnote, because it’s not a superscript. In many programming fonts, the asterisk is already in this non-superscript form.

God bless u

Great talk, and it does not even mention de-gendering or generic pronouns

Next time please show more the features you name, it’s just more capturing. Especially things like „progress bar number which does not jump“ or the mentioned important(?) font features. (Conference organizers should monitor the audio a bit more closely)

any guide videos for sile?

Very insightful lecture. Thank you so much for this.

6:49 Reminds me of Calibri.

Wow!! A very impressive presentation. A guy who seems to know what he is talking about.

We could develop machine learning…or, we could delve into some enormously wealthy investor's profits and provide someone with a job, perhaps!?

Fascinating lecture. I had no idea that Ismar David designed a sans serif.

Looking at you GPT-3 👀

Great video Niteesh! This was truly helpful. Currently as design students at National Institute of Design, Andhra Pradesh, we are researching on this topic. We would like to get in touch with you.

Try to get less nervous, Niteesh. You have so much knowlegde to transfer and you are so intelligent. Just stop the "aaah" and the "uuhh" and the "like,.... like ... and like...." - calm down, breath normally and enjoy your talk. Be confident. You deserve it!

Phoenicians WERE the ARMENIANS!!! Armenians from Sunick came down to what is modern day Lebanon and brought their own ARMENIAN alphabet with them! There is NO NATION called Phoenicians! It's simply a gross misconception among uneducated historians!
